Consumer Electronics - 2 December 2007

I am thinking of buying a PSP from the US and bringing it back to UK/Europe and SG. Been looking up online and lotsa of sites mentioned that the PSP are not region locked so I can play any games on my PSP bought from US. But when I walk into the stores in the US. They mentioned that the PSP is region locked so I can only play with games bought in the US.

The other thing is the different voltage, US has a lower voltage than SG / UK. Does the PSP comes with a converter or I need a separate one.

Totally confused....

I want to buy a camcorder battery and a couple of PS2 video games. Has anyone had any problems with shopping on amazon for electronics or otherwise? I hesitate to use my credit card online and am worried about not recieving what I order or it being in bad condition. But, they have such good prices on things it's something I've been seriously considering.

Ok, I'm in a bit of a predicament and I need your guy's help! Here is the situation:
I want to get an Xbox 360 for Christmas, and my parents are willing to spend that much money on me, and no more. The Xbox I want is the pro edition which comes with two games. Now, I also want Guitar Hero 3, but I can't get that AND an Xbox 360 pro, I'd go out of my budget! What I can do is ask for the Xbox 360 Core edition and also ask for Guitar Hero 3. That way I get the Xbox 360, and the game I want. Now, I see that the core system does not come with much except the actual Xbox and a controller. The Pro on the other hand, comes with a ton of stuff that I know that I will eventually get in the near future. So I don't know what to do. I can either get the more expensive system and get all the things I need, and some games I don't really want, or I can get the system that comes will little, and get the game that I do want. Please help me guys!!!

I cant find any store that is selling xbox 360 core consoles anymore. I find the arcade is still in stock though.

So my question is:

Does the xbox 360 arcade console let you play xbox 360 games and does it allow you to play xbox live GOLD online as well? essentially is it the same as a core console or different?
